At least eight people died in a fire that ripped through temporary housing for construction workers in Crimea, the Russian emergency situations ministry said on Thursday.
The fire broke out overnight in a two-story building for construction workers near Crimea's port city of Sevastopol, the ministry said.
"As a result of the fire, eight people died and two were injured," it said, adding that the fire had been "completely extinguished" by Thursday morning.
